Patent CA-2340531-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GREEN ROBIN A R
IPC: G06F40/00
Filed: 2001-03-12
Abstract: A computer-operated document retrieval system includes a lexicon of words contained in system documents, and a document look-up table that relates words by unique word numbers to the documents. A word look-up table identifies sets of words with common characteristics, specifically prefix value and word length, and a character look-up table identifies whether any word contains a specified character. A target set generator accesses the word look-up table to compose a target word set with characteristics corresponding to the search string. A refining module reduces the target set by selecting a set of characters from the search string, and accessing the character look-up table to identify which target words use the character set. The character look-up table is a boolean array with one bit elements that are processed in groups whose size corresponds to the maximum bit processing count of the computer, effectively culling non-matching words simultaneously. A string comparison module determines whether any word remaining in the target set matches the search string. The system quickly executes various searches, including prefix, exact match, wildcard, and fuzzy searches.

Title: A method and apparatus for detecting a restricted or bypassed transmission oil filter
Inventor: SPARKS GREGORY EVAN
IPC: F16H59/72
Filed: 2001-03-30
Abstract: A method and apparatus for detecting a restricted or bypassed transmission oil filter by providing pressure transducers on both sides of the oil filter whereby the pressure differential will indicate the extent of filter restriction. A first alarm is activated at a first pressure differential to indicate a restricted filter and the need for filter replacement. A second, higher level, alarm is activated to indicate the filter is bypassed and the engine is reduced in speed to allow the pressure and the pressure differential to drop to the point that the filter is no longer bypassed. This enables the vehicle to be operated with limited capabilities to allow the vehicle to be driven to the shop for filter replacement. If the lowered engine speed is insufficient to reduce the pressure differential to stop the bypass, then the engine speed is further reduced to a low idle and the transmission shifted to neutral. The filter must be replaced before the vehicle is can be operated again to prevent damage to the hydrostatic unit in the transmission.

IPC: H01J9/14
Filed: 1999-08-03
Abstract: Modern ultrawide flat screens known as PDPs and PALCs have a glass plate with a micro-channel structure and an address electrode in each channel. Until now, address electrodes have been mounted using printing techniques or by direct selective sputtering in accordance with channel structure or indirectly by means of selective etching of large-surface metal layers deposited with no external current and/or galvanically leaving the printed conductor structures in place. In order to avoid the disadvantages of said known methods, the invention provides that the metal printed conductors of the address electrodes be mounted selectively in the electrode areas solely using a deposition method with no external current and/or galvanically.

Filed: 2001-04-09
Abstract: The mixing element (2) is provided for a flange transition (10) in a pipeline (1) and can be mounted between two flanges (11, 12) of the pipeline. It comprises a mixing-active structure (25) which is formed by one or two vanes (25a, 25b) within a ring (20). Two mutually inclined planes (21, 22) can be defined, with the one vane being arranged on the one plane or the two vanes being arranged on the two planes. The two planes intersect at a crossing axis (23). Closed sub-surfaces (52, 51') as well as open pieces of surface (51, 520, 521, 522) of the vanes form a surface pattern (5) which is formed asymmetrically with respect to the crossing axis. Through the asymmetric shape a fluid (9) which flows through the pipeline can be deflected in such a manner that partial flows (9b) are deflected from one pipe half through sub-surfaces of the one plane (21) into the other pipe half and encounter there largely non deflected partial flows, with this also holding vice versa with respect to the other plane (22) if on the latter there is a second vane (25b) having structure elements.
